What are you reading right now?
I just finished
and it was really good. The story is so good and original and fast paced. Although in comparison the characters and world building could've been done a little better.

I'm not quite so sure about Lola yet. She is too Obsessed with some one named Calliope and the Bell twins. That's getting kind of annoying. Cricket has yet to show up in the book. I hope it gets better for me. :-)

It is a much slower mover than Anna if you ask me. I still enjoyed it but as I am also short and love messy hair so my heart is with St. Clair

Good, it's not just me that noticed the slower pace.I'm short too, and normally, I like men, 5'8 and taller...but, because I love St. Clair too, he would make me want to date a short man if he was as wonderful as he is! lol...
Just finished reading
which I enjoyed thoroughly! I just posted a review an hour or so ago, if any of you would like to check it out. Next on the list is
. Not YA, I know but I got it from the library based on a friend's recommendation. Then I'll circle back to more YA, I'm thinking
but this could change.
Wow, thanks David, I really enjoyed your review and I'm glad you enjoyed the read :)
I'm halfway through
and it's getting AWESOME!

Yep. Welcome to my crazy world of... crazy.
Add that with school, homework, and so on. I'm surprised my sanity is still in tact and my mind is still in tip-top shape. Not gonna go overboard, lol (because even the craziest of the craziest of multiples have a limit).

I'm not giving secrets away either. >;) (not that there's any)

:O :O and :O.The Raven Boys is sadly just sitting there in my library. Along with many others. I find it depressing, lol
Lol that's too bad! The Raven Boys was different, but I liked it! I mainly liked the characters, and the mystery element with magic was fun! I didn't really like the ending, but its a series, so maybe better things are around the corner!

BROOKE! The whole series is mind blowing, isn't it? :D
I just finished Ali's Pretty Little Liesand The White City. I'm now reading Don't Turn Around and Ashen Winter which are both amazing!

Yeah, that just makes me nervous. Oliver is one of my favorite authors. I have read all her books and I got to meet her last SPring (she lives not too far from me, too!). I can't wait for what she writes next!

I thought the female protaganist was seriously unlikeable therefore I could not muster alot of sympathy for her. Kids are mean. Such is life.
Has finished Priced to Move - Ginny Aiken. Now I think I am going to read Destined to Feel - Indigo Bloome.

I skipped Article 5 based on some of my fellow GR friends reviews. Since I am picky I thought I better not tempt fate.
Contrary to Jenny I didn't like
, but that may be just me. It was too dark for me with too many gruesome details and I just couldn't get into the story. I did manage to finish it, but ended up giving it 2 stars
Hmm dark and gruesome huh? Sounds intriguing! Lol, I'll have to meditate on these contradicting opinions ;) Or I could just read the sample and see what I think from that!
Am a fan of dark and gruesome! I will have to look into
. But, for now I have my hands full with:
and
Plus a handful of other books that I've got from the library and are coming in from the library on delivery in the next couple of days. *cough* I need to sprinkle some of my AR&Rs in there too and get those done. Including the ARC for Pantomime that comes out in the next week.

I picked it up and started reading it at the bookstore with a cup of coffee. What I read didn't impress me. I deleted it from my TBR pile.

I started on
today. I couldn't get it as an ebook on Nook so finally broke down and ordered it in a real book. He he.. It 's been a while since I've read an actual real book. Too many recommendations from GR friends! Had to have it!

Awesome book! Although for me the beginning was the best part, really drew me in right away. Get ready for a quite a cliffhanger though and no second book in sight yet!
